Devendra Banhart – Cristobal Lyrics 17 years ago
I come up with this theory about this song:
Cristobal the name of the song is perhaps in reference to Cristobal Colon (Columbus) and you can interpretate it as a modern protest song against the imperialism.
You have lines likes:
*Hay un mundo más allá: There is a world over there.. another... and repeat.
*Sangre trago, ves magos: swallow blood, you see magicians.
*En estas partes "go home yankees": Around here(south America),...


Hope this helps-

Devendra Banhart – The Beatles Lyrics 17 years ago
ups, little mistake. When Devendra sings "como una flor tan gorda que no tiene sabor" the literal transaltion will be: Lika a flower that is so fat that is flavorless.-

Devendra Banhart – The Beatles Lyrics 17 years ago
a little correction on the lyrics:

Paul McCartney and Ringo Star
are the only Beatles in the world
Do you feel like dancing?
Are ya getting hungry?
Do you wanna be my girl

RickiTickiTicki Canta el "trovador"
Como "una" flor "tan" gorda que no tiene sabor
Que rica es la vida, que rico es el amor
No mates al toro, mata al toreador.

Yo si oig"o" a Donovan
Yo si oigo a Marc Bolan
Yo si oigo a Ben Chasny
A Six Organs me gust a mi
........................................................

rikitiki tiki sings the troubadour
Like a fat flower that is flavorless
how rich is the life, how rich is the love
Don´t kill the bull, Kill the bullfighter

Yes i hear Donovan
Yes i hear Marc bolan
Yes i hear Ben Chasny
Six organs like to me
